The Property Tax deadline is fast approaching

Summary

July 4, 2017 is the due date to pay your property taxes and claim the Home Owner Grant, if you are eligible. Provincial Legislation requires the City to apply a penalty on any outstanding 2017 tax amounts after this date.

Payments can be made through your internet banking site, by using the drop box that is available 24/7 at 411 Dunsmuir Street, or by visiting the Service and Resource Centre on Dunsmuir Street. Payments are also accepted at most financial institutions.

Home Owner Grants can be claimed online at www.nanaimo.ca/goto/hog, by using the drop box or by visiting the Service and Resource Centre. The grant must be claimed each year that you're eligible to avoid penalties.
